78' suspension tip...

Post by 427cobra »

Well I had my 78' Cyclone suspension out...

I noticed the front springs were starting some wear marks in the front arm...

So I grabed some white tubes used on the 80's LF suspension...

As shown in the picture they will work GREAT!

Now its greased up and back in the sled...ready for next year!! :sled:
